1 0 all whom it may concern Be it lznown that I, FRED W. JoNns, a citizen of the United States, residing at Swanwick, in the county of Perry and State of Illinois, have invented certain new and useful lmpr venients in Wrenches; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawn as, and to the letters and figures of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.

This invention relates to new and useful improvements in wrenches, especially designed for pulling, bolts either with or without heads. I

The invention comprises a simple and ellicient device of this nature having various details of construction, combination and arrangement of part-s, which will be hereinafter fully described, shown in the accompanying drawings and then specifically defined in the appended claim.

lily invention is illustrated in the accomninying drawings which, with the letters of reference marked thereon, this application, and in which:

'Ei ne 1 is a side elevation of my wrench.

Said jaw N is held in different positions within the dove-tailed recess by means of a screw R mounted in an aperture in the plate I.

By the'provision of a wrench embodying the features of my invention, it will be noted that means is provided whereby the device may be adjusted to grip bolts of different diameters by simply adjusting the sliding jaw in different positions relative to the fixed jaw, and by swinging the fixed jaw back and forth the bolt may be gripped and pulled.

What I claim to be new is:

A wrench comprising a fixed jaw with an integral handle, the face of the jaw being recessed, a plate pivotally mounted in said recess and having a dove-tailed recess upon its inner face, a sliding jaw having a shank portion with dove-tailed lconnection with the plate, and a screw for holding the sliding' jaw in an adjusted position.
